March 5 (Reuters) - The following are changes in OPEC's output targets dating from efforts to support oil prices in the late 1990s. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and non-OPEC producers are currently cutting output by 2.1 million barrels (bpd) under a deal set to expire in March 2020. OPEC and its allies are proposing to deepen cuts by another 1.5 million bpd for the second quarter of 2020, alongside extending the existing cuts to the end of 2020. If agreed on Friday, the new cut would bring the OPEC+ group's overall output reduction to 3.6 million bpd or about 3.6% of global supplies. Last time OPEC reduced supplies by such a significant amount was in 2008 when it cut production by a total of 4.2 million bpd to address slower demand because of the global financial crisis.
